stuffwords

Get the extra words that decorate a base phrase

The stuff words are the words that appear on a phrase decorating a "base". For example, consider the following pangram:

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog

If our base is brown fox, then the stuff words are:

• The
• quick
• jumps
• over
• the
• lazy
• dog

This module is inspired by the concept of stuff words from Scientific Seller Amazon Keyword Tool.

Installation

Install stuffwords by running:

$ npm install --save stuffwords

Documentation

Object[] stuffwords.get(String base, String[] phrases)

This function retrieves the stuff words from a set of phrases given a base, and returns an array of objects that contain the following properties:

• String .term: The stuff word term
• Number .counter: How many times the stuff word appears in the phrase set

For example:

var stuffwords = require('stuffwords');

var words = stuffwords.get('laptop case', [
  'laptop case for mac',
  'laptop case for acer'
]);

console.log(words);

[
  {
    term: 'for',
    counter: 2
  },
  {
    term: 'mac',
    counter: 1
  },
  {
    term: 'acer',
    counter: 1
  }
]

Boolean stuffwords.matches(String base, String phrase, String term)

This function determines if the passed term is a stuff word of a phrase.

For example:

var stuffwords = require('stuffwords');

if (stuffwords.matches('laptop case', 'laptop case for mac', 'mac') {
  console.log('This is true!');
}
